BEFORE YOU CHOOSE

01

Winter changes the Himalaya

Roads close, rivers freeze and the valleys empty out. Winter tours trade long summer days for ice, snow and silence, but they ask for warm clothing, flexibility and respect for the weather.

02

Choose with the conditions in mind

Snowfall can delay a road or change a climbing site. Each trip page has a suggested season and a reserve day where it matters; confirm the current plan with Kailasa Treks before you travel.

BEFORE YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE
